Rarity and Survival Estimates Learn More

Grades	Survival Estimate The Survival Estimate represents an average of one or more experts' opinions as to how many examples survive of a particular coin in three categories: 1) all grades, 2) 60 or better, and 3) 65 or better. These estimates are based on a variety of sources, including population reports, auction appearances, and personal knowledge. Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services.	Numismatic Rarity Numismatic Rarity converts the Survival Estimate for a particular coin into a number from 1 to 10 (with decimal increments) based on the PCGS Rarity Scale. The higher the number, the more rare the coin.	Relative Rarity By Type Relative Rarity By Type ranks the rarity of this coin with all other coins of this Type. Lower numbers indicate rarer coins.	Relative Rarity By Series Relative Rarity By Series ranks the rarity of this coin with all other coins of this Series. Lower numbers indicate rarer coins.

Jaime Hernandez:

From 1964 through 2001 most Kennedy Half Dollars have high mintages exceeding over 20 million. While other dates from that time frame have mintages over 200 million. However, the 1988-P Kennedy Half Dollar only has a mintage of about 13.6 million, making it much scarcer compared to most other coins struck from 1964-2001. Beginning in 2002 mintages were drastically reduced.

The 1988-P Kennedy Half Dollar is difficult to find in MS67 condition or higher. Anything grading lower is fairly easy to find or buy very inexpensively.
